We're dividing 244494 by 72 
We want to figure out the number of times 244494 can be divided by 72.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
72 goes into 24 0 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 24 to get 24.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 244 / 72

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 244 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 28.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 216 from 244 to get 28.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 284 / 72

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 284 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 33.0
If we subtract 216 from 284, we get 68.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 68 and continue: 689 / 72

Step 5:
If we divide 689 by 72, we get 9 and a remainder of 41.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 339.0
Deduct 648 from 689 and we're left with 41.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 414 / 72

Step 6:
414 divided by 72 is 5 with a remainder of 54.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3395.0
Subtracting 360 from 414 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 540 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3395.7
Subtract 504 from 540 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 360 by 72, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3395.75
Deduct 360 from 360 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
72 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3395.75
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 72, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3395.75
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3395.75, and the remainder is 0.0.
